unparticipation

while reading this article on the impacts of public deliberation forums, I saw included just below the abstract a most fantastic keyword: zen participation. "whoa!" I thought, "this article is going to be more awesome than I thought."

alas, this apparently novel keyword was really just the result of a typographic idiosyncrasy. the keyword citizen participation had been hyphenated, such that citi- was on one line and zen participation on the next. still a cool article, just not about zen. nonetheless, it's fun to think about what zen participation might look like...
